Splendor Nail Lacquer Private Eyes Collection Part 1

Monday, October 27, 2014

Hey guys! I hope you are all having a wonderful start to your day. I know Mondays can really suck sometimes. Today I have a new indie brand to share with you. Splendor Nail Lacquer was created by a fellow Redditor with a passion for polish.

The Private Eyes collection is inspired by Veronica Mars. The whole collection will be released on Saturday, November 1st.

Neptune

Neptune is a squishy blue crelly with silver holo, silver hexes and navy hexes. It has a real wintery feel, which made me think about all of the icy manis I could create with it. The formula was a nice consistency and required three coats for full coverage.

Pirate Points

Pirate Points is a shimmery green jelly with emerald glitter, black hexes, gold holo squares and large gold dots. When I first saw this in the bottle I was a little hesitant. I love green, but I wasn't sure how I felt about the whole combo. You know the saying: "Don't judge a book by its cover", it really applies here. Once I applied my first coat of Pirate Points I was sold! The formula is a nice consistency, and the gold circles came out effortlessly. I used three coats in my swatches above.

090909

090909 is a metallic gold with gold holo dust. The holo dust is fairly subtle, but I like it that way. The formula was super smooth and required three coats for full coverage.

Mars

Mars is a berry cream with a shimmery fuchsia shift. The formula is ultra smooth and glossy without a top coat. I always recommend using a top coat, but I was blown away with how shiny this was on its own. I used three coats in the swatches above.
